Davids to thank Ford for their Escape Hybrids with a mini concert this Friday
The traditional Ford Motor Company Day is this Friday, September 19 at the Ford Conference and Event Center in Dearborn, MI. The Ford Day blockbuster will feature a mini-concert by David Cook and David Archuleta!

IMPORTANT event information for lucky fans who got tickets in advance:
Please Note: Special Catering and Seating Arrangements! In order to accommodate all guests in the main ballroom, seating will be auditorium style. A gourmet buffet-style lunch catered by Opus One will be served in the outer lobby beginning at 11:45 a.m.
Hello,
I am going to the Ford Day this Friday in Dearborn and I have been hearing some rumors about the seating, so I contacted the convention center and was told to pass on this information if I could: He said that there is NO REASON to get there really early and line up for a seat because everyone will be eating lunch first, then entering the auditorium AT THE SAME TIME.
He said there are no bad seats in there, so there is no reason to rush. There will be some reserved seats in the front for executives, but everyone else sits where they want to. He also has told me that cameras are allowed and that he does not know if the Idols will be meeting people afterward – that will be up to them.
He asked me to try and pass along this information to my network of Idol fans, so if you could post this somewhere on FanBlast, that’d be great! Thank you!

Yayy first again… I hope i can see the video later… thanks :)
I am so excited about Friday I can barely stand it. I was thinking of not doing the lunch either as to get a good seat for the concert. Thanks for the info.
This will be so much fun…I am so looking forward to it, but it will be almost bittersweet too as this feels like goodbye forever. But I am going to enjoy this as much as I can and I feel blessed to hear David sing again.
ALL I CAN SAY IS VIDEO!!!!!
Hey if you guys can?
XRANK MSN David
Thanks he slipped a little.
WOW we get to see him again so soon awesome
Maybe David can do Crush at this event?
Patiently waits for videos.
…hypnotized…mesmerized…and i just can’t wait for the VIDEO…….yayyy…..its officially VIDEO DAYyy………lol………….
Can’t wait to see David Jame’s Mini Concert…..i bet he’ll also be singing another unreleased song other than crush on that lil’ concert……..*that just lift my hopes up to heaven*…..lol
I don’t know how official this is but soundscene on Pulse Music Board says the Crush video will go on sale at Itunes tomorrow.
CAN’T WAIT 4 THE VIDEO!
I HAVE A STORY 2 SHARE:
SO THIS MORNING I WALK IN2 MY JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL & IM HEADING 2 MY 1ST CLASS. I PASS BY THE LOCKERS & STUFF-SO THERE’S THIS CLIQUE OF “COOL” GIRLS THAT I ALSO PASS BY THAT R GOIN 2 THEIR LOCKERS AND WAT DO I HEAR THEM SINGING???
U GUESSED IT-
I HEAR “CUZ THE POSSIBILITY THAT U WOULD EVER FEEL THE SAME WAY ABOUT ME…”
I WAS ECSTATIC!!!!
OMG I have a ford car, damn I wish I could be at this event lol!!
Does anyone know if David is back home on UTAH now resting since he has to be back singing this Friday again, poor baby barely gets a week to rest!
I guess he will be back in LA soon getting the rest of the album ready then he will be doing all the press involved in promoting a new CD!
Will FanBlast be following him even though the tour is over now?
hey i wuz just wondering isnt today the official day for the crush music video ??
Please secretly record. Put the cellphone under your napkins or something. I’m sure there will be very little band members, if anything, to accompany so it may be an Angels/Think of Me type of song. Anyone know? I have to think Archie will do better with those Ford execs that Cook will.
Better not be Crush. That has to be premiered somewhere big (no offense to those same Ford execs).
Pastel: We were thinking of the same thing (about the band) …I think “Imagine” would be a great song for him to sing in front of the Execs…
hey fanblast wwhy havent u mentioned anything about davids official music video coming out?
^^^
We never got official word all last week. Nothing today. We believe it’s delayed. We all are on standby…
THANKS FOR THE UPDATE, YOU SAVED ME A PHONE CALL. YEA!!! I’M GOING ANYONE ELSE? MAYBE WE SHOULD WEAR STICKY’ S WITH OUR NAMES ON THEM SO WE CAN FIND ALL THE ARCHIE FANS, LOL
Well we heard that David is singing Crush on friday..yea! How exciting!
does anyone have an extra ticket??
i would really love to go!
it was gonna be my 16th b-day present but my parents didnt buy the tickets in time…
please email me at kokomobabi27@yahoo.com if you do have an extra!!
I have this picture of the Ford execs 60ish in their 3 piece suits looking all business-like…do you think “Crush” may be too young sounding for their enjoyment…just a thought…
SAY GOODBYE, TRL…

I am also looking for an extra ticket if anyone has any, or can pass along the info in case they know of someone who has any extra
thanks!
I know a few ford executives and they are not all in their 60’s. They range from 30’s to late 50’s. I am an older fan and CRUSH is awesome. Who cannot relate to their CRUSH. I am sure they will enjoy the Davids. I wonder if they get paid for this? Didn’t they do their commercials already and for that as the top two they got two free vechicles? I hope they are doing this for charity that will be cool.
I wish I could go to the concert. Too bad I live in New York. It is said that it is up to the Idols if they want to stay afterwards for a meet and greet. Knowing David, he will stay for his fans because that is just the kind of guy he is; always thinking of others. Well the video definitely won’t be premiered on TRL because I just heard that the show was cancelled :-(
Chasee: For me personally, I hope he does sing Crush… I thought perhaps this would be an older audience (execs) and they may like his ballads more…
As mush as I want to hear CRUSH live, I don’t think he should sing it there. Onnational TV would be nice.
I can’t wait for Friday to see David one more time!! He can see anything, I will love it!!
Hey Val,
Did you find a family member to take?
Because if you didnt, i would love to buy it from you :)
Christina – I found another fanatic fan to take, so I’m all set. Sorry. Good luck finding a ticket!
thats okay…
im pretty sure im not going now, though.
i have checked everywhere i can possibly think of for tickets, and nothing.
plus its completely sold out :(
just in case of any last minute changes and someone has 1 or 2 extra tickets let me know, I am still hoping to get tickets!
thanks
